General info
Supports 64-bit
✔Samsung Exynos 7884
A 32-bit operating system can only support up to 4GB of RAM. 64-bit allows more than 4GB, giving increased performance. It also allows you to run 64-bit apps.
Has integrated graphics
✔Samsung Exynos 7884
With integrated graphics you don’t need to buy a separate graphics card.
semiconductor size
14 nm
Small semiconductors provide better performance and reduced power consumption. Chipsets with a higher number of transistors, semiconductor components of electronic devices, offer more computational power. A small form factor allows more transistors to fit on a chip, therefore increasing its performance.
GPU clock speed
770 MHz
The clock speed of the graphics processing unit (GPU).
has 5G support
✖Samsung Exynos 7884
The fifth-generation wireless technology delivers higher speeds and lower latency than the previous, fourth-generation tech.
GPU turbo
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
When the GPU is running below its limitations, it can boost to a higher clock speed in order to give increased performance.
DirectX version
DirectX 11 (ARM Mali-G71 MP2)
DirectX is used in video games, with newer versions supporting better graphics and features. The latest version is DirectX 12 Ultimate, which includes support for ray tracing, mesh shaders, and variable rate shading (VRS).
OpenGL ES is used for games on mobile devices such as smartphones. Newer versions support better graphics.
Some apps use OpenCL to apply the power of the graphics processing unit (GPU) for non-graphical computing. Newer versions introduce more functionality and better performance.
Performance
CPU speed
2 x 1.6 GHz & 6 x 1.35 GHz
The CPU speed indicates how many processing cycles per second can be executed by a CPU, considering all of its cores (processing units). It is calculated by adding the clock rates of each core or, in the case of multi-core processors employing different microarchitectures, of each group of cores.
CPU threads
8 threads
More threads result in faster performance and better multitasking.
Uses big.LITTLE technology
✔Samsung Exynos 7884
Using big.LITTLE technology, a chip can switch between two sets of processor cores to maximize performance and battery life. For example, when playing a game the more powerful cores will be used to increase performance, whereas checking email will use the less powerful cores to maximize battery life.
Uses HMP
✖Samsung Exynos 7884
Heterogeneous Multi-Processing (HMP) is a more advanced version of big.LITTLE technology. In this setup, a processor can utilize all cores at the same time, or just a single core for low-intensity tasks. This can provide powerful performance or increased battery life respectively.
turbo clock speed
1.6GHz
When the CPU is running below its limitations, it can boost to a higher clock speed in order to give increased performance.
L2 cache
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
A larger L2 cache results in faster CPU and system-wide performance.
L1 cache
64 KB (ARM Cortex-A73)
A larger L1 cache results in faster CPU and system-wide performance.
clock multiplier
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
The clock multiplier controls the speed of the CPU.
L3 cache
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
A larger L3 cache results in faster CPU and system-wide performance.
Memory
RAM speed
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
It can support faster memory, which will give quicker system performance.
DDR (Double Data Rate) memory is the most common type of RAM. Newer versions of DDR memory support higher maximum speeds and are more energy-efficient.
The maximum amount of memory (RAM) supported.
maximum memory bandwidth
3 GB/s
This is the maximum rate that data can be read from or stored into memory.
memory channels
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
More memory channels increases the speed of data transfer between the memory and the CPU.
eMMC version
5.1
A higher version of eMMC allows faster memory interfaces, having a positive effect on the performance of a device. For example, when transferring files from your computer to the internal storage over USB.
Supports ECC memory
✖Samsung Exynos 7884
Error-correcting code memory can detect and correct data corruption. It is used when is it essential to avoid corruption, such as scientific computing or when running a server.
Features
Has integrated LTE
✔Samsung Exynos 7884
The system on a chip (SoC) has an integrated LTE cellular chip. LTE is capable of downloading at faster speeds than older, 3G technology.
download speed
600 MBits/s
This is the maximum download speed supported. In reality, the download speed will usually be lower, as it will be affected by other factors (such as your home/mobile network speeds).
upload speed
150 MBits/s
This is the maximum upload speed supported. In reality, the upload speed will usually be lower, as it will be affected by other factors (for example your home/mobile network speeds).
Has TrustZone
✔Samsung Exynos 7884 (ARM Cortex-A53)
A technology integrated into the processor to secure the device for use with features such as mobile payments and streaming video using digital rights management (DRM).
uses multithreading
✖Samsung Exynos 7884
Multithreading technology (such as Intel's Hyperthreading or AMD's Simultaneous Multithreading) provides increased performance by splitting each of the processor's physical cores into virtual cores, also known as threads. This way, each core can run two instruction streams at once.
Has NX bit
✔Samsung Exynos 7884 (ARM Cortex-A53)
NX bit helps protect the computer from malicious attacks.
NEON provides acceleration for media processing, such as listening to MP3s.
Vector Floating-Point (VFP) is used by the processor to deliver increased performance in areas such as digital imaging.
front-end width
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
The CPU can decode more instructions per clock (IPC), meaning that the CPU performs better

It can't handle moderately graphic-demanding games ex. Gerana Free Fire, Clash Royale long term. It isn't worth using anymore unless you strictly use it for other purposes

Kirin 710 More Overrated Than Thought

I had a Huawei P Smart 2019 and a P30 Lite. Initially, they ran smoothly with games and the system. But over time, they started to hang a lot. After my phone was stolen, I bought a Samsung A20 and I'm surprised that despite its features and frequency being lesser than Kirin 710, it performs better with the Exynos 7884.
